A good idea

Why make life complicated? Why choose the difficult solution?

We can laugh at the advice in the add but professionally, how often do we choose to swim in alligator infested water when we don't have to?

Sometimes when we choose between two options, one can be the alligator infested water. It can be obvious from start but there are also water which becomes alligator infested if you continue swimming for a while. Unmaintainable or untestable code are examples of this. The hardest choice is of course when you have to choose between the alligators and the sharks. And then you just have to pick your fight.
